demonstration synthesis / mathias grassow / dayin

"releasing drone and ambient music since almost forty years, Mathias Grassow has developed his very distinctive style. long lasting tracks which hum themselves into the listener's subconsciousness, mesmerising angelic overtones mixed with haunting deep drones to forget present space and time. for the cosmic winnetou release, his first one on cassette since the late nineties, mathias encapsuled the essences of his musical magic into pieces with running time between two and fifteen minutes. surprisingly those short tracks makes you even more forget where and who you are and transform your inner selve into some kind of zen saint mode. how he does this? don't know, but make sure to regard the advice of the master himself: "I’m sure you’ll find answers not in words, but in deep listening with your heart!"

"Daniel James Leznoff is not from this world. to release twenty albums in one year is some kind of extraterrestrial achievment. even more so because all of his albums reach an extra high level of quality. early 80s synth lines dancing like crazy with each other, unforgettable melodies over and over on each and every track, moody short pieces crafted with adorable inspiration. the cosmic winnetou release is of course not an exception, even more so it seems that with every release daniel is able to increase his ability to blow us away, out of this world, into his space. be part of this ongoing musical wonder and buy this tape!"

"letting go of people is an album about humans you wish you never met. their voices are echoing inside, answering words you wish you never had to say. these thirty minutes, sliced into seven pieces are a reminder of not only all wrong choices you have ever made, but also of those mistakes, which are yet to follow. Dayin is harsh drone and regret, but mostly a relief. " heavenly drones to pacify your misanthropic feelings. these days everybody's need."
